Without fail, I always get sick right around Thanksgiving.
I used to chalk it up to the stress of impending finals, but now that I’ve been out of school for a couple years, I wonder if my body has just gotten into a bad habit. Jerk.
My head feels like it weighs about 20 pounds, and I’ve got that it-sounds-sexy-until-I-start-coughing-and-hacking-up-a-lung voice going on.
I remembered feeling sick around this time last year, too, and actually looked back through my posts to see if I’d mentioned it. And I had. On the exact same day a year ago. Not funny, body. Not funny.
Although, I did like the photo I found for last year’s post, so I’m shamelessly reusing it:
The sad part is that I did actually try to go into work this morning. I lasted an hour.
What a waste of a cute outfit.


Oh hon, I hope you feel better soon! Get hoards of rest, drink tea, juices, water, eat soup and then rest some more. Big hugs.
I always liked the Garfield cartoon where he’s sick. In it he says “I tink I hab a code. Look, eben my thoughts are stubbed up.”
Hope you’re feeling better soon and, don’t worry, that outfit will be waiting for you when you’re feeling better.
oog, i’m so sorry. sleep, sleep, and more sleep. and maybe some gatorade and tea. then more sleep
Aww…I’m so sorry to hear that. I wish that you won’t get sick next Thanksgiving. Take care!
Looks like half the people in the world are sick right now, and half of those have swine flu, and half of those don’t even know they have it, and half of those will give it to someone else.
That’s how I got sick I’m sure. Get Well.
